Senior Events Around Town

By
Just looking around the newspaper and found quite a few healthy living events and information resources focused on our Gold Silver and Platinum age bracket folks (can I at least be bronze? or pewter? sometimes I just feel like Iron Oxide). I love the idea about constantly trying to create, improve, contribute and be part of a community - a sangha space.

The City of La Mesa will host its 6th annual Senior Expo on Friday, October 30, 2015.
With a wide variety of speakers and exhibitors, Expo will offer free “one-stop shopping” for adults facing life changes that may affect their independence, or those who would like great tips on safety and security. Supported by funding from SANDAG, Expo will be held at the La Mesa Community Center, 4975 Memorial Drive, La Mesa 91942 from 8:30 am to 1:00 pm.

Solidarity and Kaivalya

By
I just read my son a book called  The Yellow Star  - recommended to me by a friend at his school, who read it to their children. I think for me this sums up everything my parents ever taught me about "good" and "right" and being strong, and being a community member. It's how I always felt in my heart and how I want to teach my son to be. It's not just about "standing up for the little guy;" it's about being willing to put yourself out there to make a statement about justice. It's about knowing in your heart that you are part of a bigger community and you must act to support it even if you are not personally needing the direct support. The story was the legend of King Christian X of Denmark. The book acknowledges that the story in it's oral and written history, nor the version in this book, were fully true, but adapted version of an allegory for solidarity and support for ones brethren.  The author writes in the end notes: And what if we...

SUPERPOWERSYOGA® by Robert Powers

By
SUPER POWERS YOGA ® by Robert Powers is built on traditional Hatha yoga postures (class is 55 minutes). The series is comprehensive but not repetitive. It is safe but challenging, with endless opportunity to transform yourself. After hundreds of classes and thousands of students, I believe this routine does the most good for the greatest number of people. It is an original and proprietary series, but yoga belongs to all yogis. SUPERPOWERSYOGA® SERIES Sequence & Story I developed the SUPERPOWERSYOGA® SERIES largely based on 3 events. 1. Teaching 1,200+ Bikram yoga classes. The Bikram yoga series is sometimes called “26 and 2” because it is the same 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises every time. I started yoga with this series and have always appreciated its completeness, challenge and intelligence. Bikram yoga is 90 minutes in intense heat, which turns many people off. (We got up to 115° a few times.) But the Hatha yoga lessons are solid, and the consistency of the routi...
